74 Pubs and Bars found in or around Heron Quays (DLR)

One of the oldest drinking establishments in Canary Wharf, this ABO has been a popular place almost from day one. Its dockside location allows al fresco drinking whenever the weather is fine and, on a warm Friday night, this...

This rather large Nicholson's pub ticks a lot of boxes without being a brilliant pub, but it probably meets the demands of the local workers in Canary Wharf. It's still got all the tellys it had before, decent beer with regular...

Those of you familiar with the Slug & Lettuce chain will find no surprises here. It's a familiar sight nowadays in many an bar, the shelves of wine, the standard beer pumps and the ciabatta sarnies. Only two other points...

In response to our reviewer below - it may well be that standards have changed significantly - and whilst we can't visit every pub straight away we will make every effort to visit this one. Should anyone in the interim visit...

The Blacksmith's got the renovation it so dearly needed. The place has been brightened up (rather too bright, actually) and is now effectively a bar with a curry takeaway attached (or is it the other way round?). You can eat...

We were pretty scathing about the place last time we were here - the service was diabolical, bordering on the plain rude and that, thankfully, has changed. But it's still a disappointing place, having the air of a provincial...

Another addition to the Wetherspoon empire, this one does have one excellent thing going for it: when the weather's good, you can sit outside and people watch. The interior leaves much to be desired, wannabe trendy, full of...

It's not often that you'll decide to visit a museum for a pint, but in the case of 1802, you might do just that. The place bills itself as 1802 Bar, Lounge and Dining and 99 per cent of the people who come here, are here for...

One of the bars/restaurants that have sprung up in the old West India Quay warehouses just north of Canary Wharf. Exploiting the waterside location and the space in front of the warehouse, this Bar 38 has a little more to...

The Blacksmith's Arms is a fine local that has served this area very well over the years. It hasn't been affected too much by the influx of people filling the many developments in the surrounding area in recent times, although...

The Puzzle pub chain is retreating quicker than an Artic iceflow: their outlet in Docklands now being in the hands of the Antic chain. Now relaunched and renamed rather gnomically (Ontiod = On the Isle of Dogs), we'll be down...

The Spinnaker is a modern place, actually sitting in the dock, by some of the older (at least for the island) developments in Docklands. It's not much of a place really, looking a bit like a slightly downmarket All Bar One, but...

We love this old place. The Grapes is a quaint, narrow, little pub in a very old terrace on the north bank of the river at Limehouse. There's a tiny balcony at the back that you can squeeze onto, if you're lucky, and enjoy...

Ship York is a locals' pub that was here well before the latest redevelopments - it looks like a Thirties building, but there's been a pub here for much longer than that. It's is a big place providing good, honest food and...

Proving that Docklands isn't all shiny office blocks and modish flats, here's a remnant of predevelopment. Located on what feels like a roundabout and with the air of a place that would get raided on "The Bill",...

Like its famous neighbour the Grapes, this pub enjoys a splendid location on the Thames. It has a fair history too, being originally a barge builders and later an inn called the Waterman's Arms. Although there's no river...
